I took a brief look at US copyright law and I'm not convinced that 
taking a picture of an object that is copyrighted is a violation of 
that right. Copyright means that you can't copy the object. A 
photograph is not a copy of any three dimensional object. I don't see 
the basis for any of this. I will continue to investigate however......

Be seeing you.
